3rd Week

"Science and Society: How to Understand and to Use" (13. - 17. 6. 2016)

Annotation

Relations between science and society is long-term process which one crosses all age groups during centuries. Everyday life is full of principles and theories applications as engine of different real observing or hidden phenomena. Many of them can be presented to society through simple and impressive, sometimes also through spectacular, ways. The module bring various examples of experimental activities connected with historical, cultural, traditional or non-traditional aspects (i.e. antic four elements, kitchen activities, everyday life substances etc.).
